Tchebyshev inequality for Measure theory.

$begingroup$


Suppose $f$ integrable on measurable set $E$ and $f(x)$ $geq$ $0$ on $E$,



And for any $a in mathbb{R}^+$, we define:



$E_a$ = ${x in E$ $vert$ $f(x) > a}$. (which is measurable by basic principles)



Show that $m(E_a) leq frac{1}{a} int_E f(x)$. ($m$ is Leb Meas)



here is what I have:



Pf:



Since



$a$ $chi_{E_a}$ $leq f(x)$ ($because$ of the fact: $x in E_a$)



by integrating both sides over $E$ we obtain



$a int_E chi_{E_a}$ $leq$ $int_E f(x)$



and by definition, we rewrite the LHS and have:



$m(E_a) leq frac{1}{a} int_E f(x)$



does this work?



a classmate said I have to consider an infinite case too? but then



$int_{E_a} a chi_{E_a cap [-n,n]}$ goes off to infinity?



not sure I get this part, is my part correct? thanks in advance!

          everything looks fine, you do not have to consider the infinite case since if the integral of f is not finite, then you have the claim trivially. If the integral of the indicator of function over the set you are given is infinte, then by monotonicity of the integral also the integral of f is infinite and again it holds :D

            awesome thanks so much!! I see so the infinite case is the trivial case of the inequality? so for my finite case I had, that looks correct? I just need to include the infinite and say why it trivially holds, thanks@
